Episode 531: From Violins to Verbs – The Suzuki Method and IEW
The Arts of Language Podcast
Listen to this episode to learn Andrew Pudewa’s history of training with Dr. Shinichi Suzuki and how Andrew recognized in Dr. Webster’s Structure and Style® methodology a kind of Suzuki Method™ for English composition. Based on modeling and imitation, a sequential development of techniques, periodic review of composition structures, and an emphasis on mastery prior to progression, Dr. Webster’s writing program was a near perfect implementation of Dr. Suzuki’s philosophy of education.
